1. Who we are

Union Discount (“we”, “us”) operates uniondiscount.net, an aggregator of sale items from independent skate shops. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this policy.

Contact: heyuniondiscount@gmail.com
Postal address: 81 Carrer Enamorats 4-3, Barcelona, 08013, Spain

2. What data we collect

  • Region preference: stored in a cookie named region so we can show relevant shops.
  • Alert subscriptions (if you opt in): email address, filter criteria, region, timestamp and IP address of consent, and the version of this policy shown at signup.
  • Analytics (if you accept cookies): Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics collect pseudonymous data about your visit. Server-side visitor counts (via Cloudflare) run regardless of consent and do not involve cookies or personal data.
  • Server logs: our hosting provider retains IP addresses and request metadata for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising.

5. International data transfers

Some processors are located in the United States. Transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework certification of each processor and, where applicable, Standard Contractual Clauses. Canadian users’ data may also be processed in the US and become subject to US legal process.

6. How long we keep it

  • Unconfirmed alert subscriptions: 48 hours.
  • Confirmed alert subscriptions: until you unsubscribe.
  • After unsubscribe: email hashed and kept 30 days on a suppression list, then deleted. Consent records retained 3 years for legal defence.
  • Server logs: 30 days.
